I don't think high traffic lists are efficient for several reasons: - Questions are repeated, partly because it is hard to find the answers in the archives.
- One reason why there are a lot of questions is that documentation is lacking. What I wanted to suggest was one method of collecting answers in a cheap fashion. - I realize that pressing delete is easy. The cost of pressing delete however is missing all the relevant discussions. - High traffic can also make people rude.
